I’m here if you need me

Another gorgeous morning in Central Washington! A little chilly, but the blue sky and bright sunshine has been my motivator this day! My choice of characters for today's post is from the Sweet November digital image collection, found at 7 Kids Craft Store. Queen November is available to purchase, but the Little Fairy Tot was given to everyone that participated in the Sweet November October challenge. Every month a new freebie is offered if you post a Sweet November creation! Too much fun! I enjoyed working this project, but I started out with a much different scene. I initially colored a snowy background, and then worried these little fairies would get too cold!  So I decided to change their environment to a little warmer climate. Jury's still out... I think I probably should have left the snow. I've been informed that fairies do not get cold!! LOL! Anyway, I just love the Sweet November images. So much heart in them. As always, thanks for stopping by. My next project is decorating my Christmas Tree!

Sending Joy for the Holidays

Hello there! Today I decided to nab TGF's Cutesy Anya (available at 7kids) and put her in a "sweet" little Christmas Card. I love how these TGF characters are so diverse! I think this is the third time I've colored her, each for different occasions.  As you can see, I created a very simple card - but this paper seemed to be the perfect background for her.  Once she landed in this little candy shop, it just didn't need much more embellishment.  So that's it for today, thank you for your visit!

Merry Little Christmas

7 Kids has started a new monthly feature called Sweet November Vault. It is a 24 hour period where they bring back a few archived Sweet November images and convert them to digital format. I am so excited to get my hands on this darling image.  Piper and her Snowman captures the giving spirit of Christmas, which I just adore.  The background is one of many winter scenes I learned from Sandy Allnock’s Winter Wonderland Copic class.  I also so appreciate Amy Young’s tutorial on 7 Kids Facebook group page, sharing techniques that were so helpful when coloring this little scene.  You can find more Christmas/Holiday Sweet November images at the 7 Kids Craft Store.  So, that’s it for today.  Thanks for stopping by!

Holiday Anya Merry Christmas

An oldy but goody, my post today is Holiday Anya from The Greeting Farm, which I believe is a retired stamp.  I do adore this sweet little image. So much so that I’ve colored her up every Christmas season for the last few years! A very simple card today, but had great time bringing her to life. Hope you enjoy!
